No Finger Joints!

Solid Wood is far superior to finger jointed wood, which is many small pieces glued together, each with varying grain densities that absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, expanding and contracting non-uniformly as environmental conditions change, and causing the wood to bow and the finger joints to eventually fail.

A single homogeneous kiln-dried solid wood Stretcher Bar outperforms and outlasts a finger jointed Bar whose sole purpose is to save the manufacturer cost, not contribute to the archival value of artwork intended to last a millennium. As a manufacturer, Masterpiece® does its part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

Our Ecosystem Depends on Healthy Forests

Forests play a vital role in our planet's ecosystem. They absorb carbon dioxide, filter air and water, and provide habitat for countless species of plants and animals. By using sustainably sourced lumber, we can help to protect these important ecosystems and ensure that they continue to provide these valuable services for generations to come.

The power of art lies in its ability to uplift the soul. ♦ Pierre-Auguste Renoir

Pierre-Auguste Renoir, one of the principal figures of the Impressionist movement, was no stranger to the transformative influence of art. Through his vivid brushstrokes and radiant colors, he captured moments of pure joy and serenity, translating the simple pleasures of life onto canvas. Renoir's works are a testament to his belief that art transcends mere representation; it holds the power to touch and elevate the spirit.

Such is the role of art in society; it offers solace, provokes thought, and connects us to a spectrum of human emotions. When the world feels chaotic or overwhelming, art serves as a haven, reminding us of the beauty and wonder around us. For artists, the process of creation becomes an exploration, a means to communicate and engage with the world. We find purpose and meaning in the act of sharing our perspective, hoping that our message uplifts and resonates. And as those who appreciate art, it becomes our anchor, a reminder that even in darkness, there is light waiting to be discovered.
